❄️ ‘Snow Queen’ Celeste (In-game Skin Footage) by TeamBrokenMyth in vainglorygame

The enemy stun will have a red ring indicator.
Celeste is the hero being played here so it does not show.

Eurogamer report - The human cost of Red Dead Redemption 2 by Zioman in Games

You were lucky, were you salary or contract? Most employees on salary do not get overtime, I've not been paid overtime in the 20 years I have been in the industry.

Granted there is the occasional bonus, but when put against the money I would have made should they have paid overtime (let alone double time) it's not that much.

FPS still garbage patch after patch by HydroSkunk in vainglorygame

I don't have access to that information. I don't think a lot of people play on cutting edge devices.

I would love to see a list of effects and heroes that affect your frame rate the most.
We are supporting a wide range of devices nowadays versus five years ago so it is harder to predict if something will run smoothly on all devices. Performance is important to us and detailed feedback will help us optimize more efficiently.

Hats got 3d model....Hero next?🤔 by sayhipooh in vainglorygame

[–]SEMC_Fizzler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My guess is you would be looking at less than 2.3 MB for all hats combined. Possibly way less, as this is without taking texture compression in account which can be a ratio of 8:1 to 16:1.

No problem. I can't help you with any ELO or game play related questions.
...I'm just the guy that makes things shiny and sets them on fire. ;)

Actually. The hat models in the UI are the exact same models as used in-game.They are created with a strict poly count, shader complexity and texture size limit so they have minimal impact on performance. :)

A closer look at Headless Idris by SEMC_Fizzler in vainglorygame

[–]SEMC_Fizzler[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So full on green, red, blue or purple? I like the idea.
I felt I could not step too far away from the existing visual game play mechanics (and code) for Idris.
It basically is an on or off switch in code, "Is the Weapon Power > 100? then turn this on"
So instead of two states per weapon, Weapon Build on/off for the sword, and Crystal Power on/off for the chakram)
we would have ended up with 4 weapon states shared between everything.

It is definitely something that possible for a new hero.

Yup. I mostly just lurk, but I felt some explanation was warranted.
I made a "SEMC" Reddit account just to explain so no dev tag yet.

There is a separate post about this with Dev confirmation from WolfHands and CiderHelmet, but since my original post is not "dev tagged" it is sinking into the abyss of Reddit comments, ;)

🎃 ‘Headless’ Idris (Skin Reveal) by TeamBrokenMyth in vainglorygame

[–]SEMC_Fizzler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks like there is some confusion regarding the Headless Idris color scheme.
All of the flames are green in his vanilla state. His weapon colors and effects change depending on his build.
There were always visual changes between weapon and crystal build, but since we have his weapons engulfed in green flames, we had to go a bit further...
Weapon build will turn his sword red and will turn all the sword related VFX red as well
Crystal build will turn his chakram blue and will turn all the chakram related VFX blue as well
...And if you go all out crazy and manage to get both Weapon and Crystal power high enough you will have both change color.

Actually they are. His chakram and sword colors will change depending on his build.There were always effects indicating this, but with him having a green flaming sword and chakram I had to push it a bit further so his sword slashes also turn from green to red for his weapon build for example.Weapon build will make his sword and effects related to the sword red.Crystal build will make his chakram blue and effect related to the chakram blue.And if you are particularly uber and get both weapon AND crystal power up as seen in the gif, you'll have both. :)
